I used the Fedora 4 TPS Howto, and all worked perfeckt until right now. Suddenly dovecot won`t start, I get a message that the port i already in use. This is the services on my system: Code: [root@ ~]# service --status-all acpid (pid 2413) is running... anacron is stopped Nightly apt update is disabled. atd (pid 2726) is running... auditd (pid 2226) is running...

Ok, please open /etc/xinetd.d/imap, /etc/xinetd.d/imaps, /etc/xinetd.d/ipop2 and /etc/xinetd.d/ipop3 and put Code: disable = yes into each of them. Then do this: Code: /etc/init.d/xinetd restart /etc/init.d/dovecot restart

Please add "disable = yes" also in /etc/xinetd.d/pop3s Then restart xinetd, wait about 30 seconds and then restart dovecot.
Thank you so mutch guys! Now it works. I actualy think I understood the problem to, after you explained it. Thanks again.
I want to change the IP adress on the server, will it be a problem? Do I have to change the IP somewhere alse than in the ifconf file..... I see that there are some references to the ip adress in ispconfig. Just wanted to be sure before I change something
So I have to change /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 /etc/sysconfig/networkng/devices/ifcfg-eth0 /etc/sysconfig/networkng/devices/ifcfg-eth1 /var/named/chroot/var/named/etc files /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf Where is the Vhosts_ispconfig.conf file? Anything alse on the fedora? Or will the changing of ipadresses just mess things up?
It depends on your distribution. It might be in /etc/httpd/vhosts, /etc/apache/vhosts, /etc/apache2/vhosts,... Not if you change the IP address everywhere.
Dovecot Imap Fatal listen (995) failed address already in use I am trying to setup Centos 4.8 Ispconfig 2 rpc.statd is using port 995 Dovecot Imap fails. How can I correct this? Ps: how do I get the "code" boxes to work, all I can do is copy and past the results for file such as cat etc/dovecot.conf
